Dark Sun never captured my imagination or struck me as unique; it just seemed like A Canticle for Leibowitz with everything interesting replaced with D&D. It's a great trope mixer like Ravenloft, Spelljammer, and Planescape were (and Ebberon is, I suppose), but the combination of Dying Earth with D&D never caught my attention quite the way some of the other settings did.
